Wait a minute ! The name of the new baby from Prince Henry & Megan Markle is....Archie ?!?!?
That's not a joke.
There may be former English kings, queens, princes & princesses rolling over in their graves right now.
They couldn't think of a better name than Archie ?
Will he eventually marry an Edith ? and nickname his son-in-law 'Meathead' ?
Will his favorite sayings include......"dummy up" ?
Was Bozo taken ?

Then, perhaps he's lucky, that he wasn't named Wimpy.

Archie is the name of the father/uncle in the book The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgeson Burnett, a British born American novelist and playwright.
I think it's a well thought out name, encapsulating the child's national and cultural origins.
Like popes, some kings and queens don't use their baptismal name as their regnal one, for example, Queen Victoria was baptised Alexandrina Victoria.
In the unlikely event of Archie ever becoming king, he could always adopt a regnal name, or maybe initiate an Archian era.
At least it wasn't Gilligan.
